Abstract

This paper reports on a survey of over 500 injured disabled motor vehicle accident victims. By contacting victims 3 - 4 years after the accident, the authors have obtained a more comprehensive, longer-term picture of accident injury after-effects, e.g., changes in life-style, family status, employment, income, effects on friends and relatives, etc. Hopefully, greater sensitivity to the pain and suffering following motor vehicle accidents will influence personal and government decisions.
